We had a culture where we had passive, faculty-centric teaching and learning, and now we have an active, engaged teaching and learning culture.
We have seen improved course completion, which is a critical leading indicator to student success and graduation."
Every single person who’s taken an ACUE course has loved it. Every single one. That is very unusual for higher education.
“We are committed to supporting faculty in the classroom so that our students get better instruction and our faculty become the best professors they can be. The institutional goal of many colleges, in the past, was to expand access, to give people an opportunity. Getting women, people of color, and impoverished people into higher education. But that didn’t get students across the finish line. So, the focus moved beyond access to thinking about how we can support students so that they earn their degree.
Now, we are starting to think about students’ post-completion agenda. Are they matriculating into bachelor’s programs in their majors? Are they graduating with a bachelor’s in a reasonable time after they transfer? For career students, are they earning family-sustaining wages?
But we can’t do that unless students are completing their degrees, so the focus on student success remains vibrant.”
